Kennedy, Jr. and U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins released the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025–2030, the most significant reset of federal nutrition policy in decades.

Dante DiMatteo (PharmD) breaks down the changes: What's good, what's bad and what families should take away from this messy government food fight.
